Graciela needs someone who understands: peer support in recovery
Peer mentor wanted by a person six months into recovery from alcohol dependence.

I'm six months into recovery from alcohol dependence. I attend meetings and see a counselor, but the weeks between meetings are the hardest. I'd love a mentor - someone who has a year or more of recovery and who would be willing to talk once a week.
I'm not looking for a replacement for treatment. I'm looking for someone who understands what a bad Tuesday night feels like.
I'd prefer someone who's happy to do video calls. Any country is fine. I'll be respectful of your time and boundaries, and happy to pay it forward later.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
- effort
- 1 call a week
- format
- Online or by phone
- skills
- lived experience, empathy

sending strength. This could happen to any of us. I'm in nursing myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Take care.
Sending love. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
Keep going, Graciela. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it
